CVE-2025-1060
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedCWE-319: Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information vulnerability exists that could result in the exposure of data when network traffic is being sniffed by an attacker.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceA CWE-319 Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information vulnerability allows attackers to intercept and read sensitive data by sniffing network traffic. This occurs when applications transmit sensitive information over the network without encryption, enabling man-in-the-middle attacks.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify applications transmitting sensitive dataReview your application's data flow documentation or code to identify endpoints that handle sensitive information (credentials, personal data, financial info, session tokens). List all network communication points.Affected if The application transmits any sensitive data over the network.
-
Capture and inspect network trafficUse a network sniffer tool (such as tcpdump, Wireshark, or similar) to capture traffic between the client and server. Filter for traffic involving your application and examine the payload contents.Affected if Sensitive data appears in plain text within captured network packets.
-
Check for unencrypted protocolsReview server and client configurations for the use of unencrypted protocols (HTTP, FTP, Telnet, SMTP without TLS) when transmitting sensitive data. Check URLs, connection strings, and API endpoints.Affected if Sensitive data is sent over unencrypted protocols like plain HTTP.
-
Verify encryption configurationInspect application configuration files, web server settings, and API client settings to confirm TLS/SSL encryption is enabled for all sensitive data transmission paths. Check for valid certificates and proper cipher configurations.Affected if Encryption is disabled or not enforced for sensitive data channels.
-
Test for protocol downgradeAttempt to connect to your application over both HTTP and HTTPS. Verify that sensitive operations are blocked or redirected when accessed via unencrypted connections.Affected if The application allows sensitive operations over plain HTTP without强制重定向到加密通道.
You are affected if your application transmits sensitive data over the network without TLS/SSL encryption, as evidenced by plain text sensitive information in captured network traffic or unencrypted protocol usage in configurations.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement TLS/SSL encryption or equivalent cryptographic controls for all sensitive data transmissions to ensure data is encrypted in transit.
